I want to make a "Peapod" similar to the Speer model. I'm considering making it good to approximately 20-25 degree. I have everything I need except the down fill. I just can't figure out how many ounces of down I would need. Also, where is a cheap place to buy enough down to make this project?

My Luxe pillows and comforters on eBay. They have 800 fill and if you are patient enough you can get it for $2.50/oz shipped.

I had to settle for 30ozs of 750fp - still a good deal at $2.66/oz.

Probably not, I've had mine for several months. It took me 2-3 weeks, but I ended up with about 140 oz. Hadn't planned on that much but the last auction I won was 2 firm kings. My wife and I are enjoying using the queen pillows enough that I'm not sure we'll give them up for projects. My average price was $2.27/oz. So, it can be done if you have the time to wait.
